Title: slow pulling away
Post by TRACEYS_LIMO on Feb 21^st, 2006, 8:42pm

if you get over taken by mopeds when you pull away like i was check no one has messed with the throttle or you find that you are only getting half throttle and on a 2ltre 16v auto this is not very funny. it was not a mechanic who found this it was a auto gearbox repair centre they said i made there day once they got off the ground from laughing. maybe the throttle was set back because at an earlier time it was used as car for an under takers. ::) }{

The first thing I did when I got my Scorp was to adjust the throttle pedal to be level with the brake pedal, it was far too low and if the carpet was in the wrong position you'd be lucky to get outa second gear :-[
